you start with a father who's a "rocker" spend your formative years moving engine parts out the way to reach the bread, handing tool to dad, then you get a box of bits and dad helps you turn it into an engine that works, mess around with bikes and cars for the next 10 years, have HM's finest teach you work practices, followed by 30 odd years of bike maintenance, all pretty easy really.......
